This is the last 5 or so years
of my art, most of which was created while living in Montreal. I add a new row of five pictures every month or so. Most are
experiences from my life, thoughts, dreams, fantasies, and things other
people have said that have inspired. I'm hoping to keep on creating
pictures for as long as I can. In the end I'll have made an illustrated
history of my life, the people I've known, and how we've all changed. I'd like this website to become a living work of art combining my pictures with your thoughts and dialogue. If you feel like it, leave a comment on any of the pictures and it will appear at the bottom of the page. L'introduction est aussi disponible en francais.

from Moving on Mars: An Overview, by Rony Kubat
"In reduced gravity, humans exhibit a third gait: the lope. Newman et
al defines the lope as a run with an extended aerial phase. Humans were
found to lope in 3/8ths G in a wide range of speeds
from ~ 1.5m/s to ~ 2.3m/s. When loping, people stand on their toes when
in the stance phase of a stride."

description of the wolf Buck, from Jack London's Call of the Wild
"He broke into the long easy lope, and went on, hour after hour, never
at loss for the tangled way, heading straight home through strange
country with a certitude of direction that put man and his magnetic
needle to shame."
